This is for the "Extreme Casual Gamer". Iwata mentioned it during the presentation. Mostly to be used for relaxation / meditation games, yoga, etc. They are on a mission to be a company that caters to all groups. That is how they marketed the DS so well. That's why they developed the "Touch Generations" brand of games that anyone can play.
Mario Galaxy is sooooo good, it may be a little hard to top so soon after it's release. I really hope they continue the retro trend that they had with WarioLand Shake It. I would love a new 2D Super Mario Bros. with some shake, point, and tilt controls to make the game feel new.
The game looks much better than the first one. Not owning a Motion+ device would deter someone from giving the title a try. Now it becomes a win-win just like it did for Wii Play.
Good review but I disagree with the comment on the motion controls. I was able to beat the game using the motion controls and had a lot of fun with it. It does provide a bit more of a challenge but never felt frustrating. Once you get used to them, the standard controls feel a bit boring.
